On Karl Fisch's blog, The Fischbowl, the post, "Who Ya Gona Call" shows exactly what this world has come to. The story about how Ms. Orf found an old friend on Facebook, and is going to use Skype so that he can talk to her business class about being an entrepreneur is a prime example of how the internet can be used. This shows that, by using the internet, as it is today, it is possible to find anybody, anywhere, and then have a conversation with that person wherever they are. I personally think this can be a good thing, and a bad one at the same time. Take pedophiles for example; pedophiles use the web to stalk children and whoever else they want, and things like Facebook are being used as their tools of evil. The web is good though because it can be used to do things for education, like what was described on Mr. Fisch's blog. This all ties back into the digital footprint essay we did for class, the sites on the web that are intended to help us, can have a down side too. I would like to see an age where the internet is completely safe, and yet can still be used to its fullest extent, but that is probably not going to happen for a very long time.
